Hi Oliver, Have you considered using OAuth2? You could direct them to a Google page to grant you authorization to manage their AdWords account and use the access token after that. We've published an example here: http://code.google.com/p/google-api-ads-java/source/browse/examples/adwords_axis/src/main/java/adwords/axis/v201109_1/misc/OAuth2Example.java
(note: there's a small bug with using OAuth if you're not using maven, hope to push out a fix this afternoon: http://code.google.com/p/google-api-ads-java/issues/detail?id=12). There's currently no API for managing users or for linking accounts. OAuth may be able to help you in this scenario. - Kevin Winter AdWords API Team On Monday, June 11, 2012 12:57:38 PM UTC-4, Oliver wrote: > > Hi Adwords team, > > We're developing an application to allow users to manage their adwords > accounts.
